DayZ Connecting and Hackers

Recommended Posts

Ive been playing for the last few weeks and have enjoyed the mod till the last week,

Hope things will get sorted before the stand along comes out.

Lately connection issues and hackers have just become too much of an issue in this game,

If your not sitting at a loading screen for an hour over connecting to a server with multible trys, you get smashed by some idiot hacking.

Basicly the hacks for this game are out of control, before these connection issues got bad, I was killed each day I played by a Hacker, via God mode or the teleport hack. So is a waste of time going to NW Air Feild just to be teleported and killed to respawn with nothing at the beach.

And yes ive tried every google/forums fix for the connection issues. Spent 2 days going through the google search on the issue as the fix here didnt work, with the last being a fresh game download and install of the latest Beta which was a fresh download too. Ive managed to get in to 1 server all afternoon.

Might try again in a couple weeks when the Loading screen issues might be fixed as with the number of threads on this issue and the amout of ppl saying they have the same issue, Id thought it might get a priority fix.

Hope things get better,

Im off to another game.

The cheating can't be sorted until standalone, that's one of the major reasons they are going standslone.

The loading screen issues are mainly caused by players joining servers running a different version to their own. Majority of servers have updated to 1.7.2.5, if you are using sixlauncher you are on 1.7.2.4.

Thanks for being involved in the alpha testing, reporting bugs and giving feedback though

Actually with the release of the new BE tools, scripters have dipped, IMO.

Less server kills and thunderdomes that's for sure.

There will always be hackers, in every game.

Yep, I've encountered a massive decrease in hackers (not at pre-July levels, but much lower than early August).

And remember. As long as software is created to serve humans, hackers will always exist.

Battleye tools, and Battleye itself are doing a crazy job when it comes to public release.

They banned another 200 at least two days ago.

Woo!
